Dear Shir SundaraRajan swAmi,
I dont know how these things can be accepted without proper premise.
Will these stories add value to our guruparamparA?
I have visited thirukkuRungudi several times and also the shrine of sri kaliyan
in the field.
I have never heard of such stories that you mention.

Subject: [ramanuja] Kaliyan 's last day of life in Thirukurungudi &
hisSalvation !!!

Shri Kaari-Maaran Thunai
Dear Shri TCA Swaamin
Adiyaen's Pranaams. You are like a Giant Star in this yahoo-group
forum !!! I am privileged to provide with my little (subtle)
knowledge of what i learnt from my late Father (who in turn
learnt from a Strong Army of our Bhagavathaas living in
Srivilliputtur).
I dont have any hand-written proof to base my argument about
Kaliyan.
Kaliyan got killed in Thirukurungudi (precisely in Vayal-kaadu)
In my home we used to have a writings (Yedu in Palm Leaf - Panai
Olai )
in Krantham Language. My Great grand father read this grantham to
my father. and my father orally told to my elder brther & i
overheard some of the stories.
Unlike other Azhwars , Kaliyan's life is very Dynamic &
Turbulant role and it was full of Braveness, courage &
Ananya-Bhakthi.
Even if you notice all the Azhwars , Kaliyan is the only Murattu
Azhwar
Having a Vael in his Hand ( for his bravery )
Half of the story is ...........
Story goes like this
==============
In one of robbery sites - Kaliyan was near to the Treasure (Por-
Kalanjiyam)
there used to be non-stopping Chakra which kaliyan dont know
how to stop. he has been given a Hint that Vazhai maram could stop
that Chakra. Kaliyan used lot of Vaazhai maram to stop that
chakra..
Kaliyan cross the last hurdle to that treasure. while they pack
off the
jewels(all other ornaments).... Kaliyan's Associate was caught in
trap (like Pori). The Robbery Gang was unable to get the
Trapped kaliyan's Associate out of pori. In order to ensure that
Kaliyan & his associates dont get caught after robbery
& escape safely with wealth Kaliyan killed one of his associates
(robber) by
cutting his head off & packed his head with him. (like Ali-baba
story ) !!
The Associate can (may) be one of Thola-Vazhakkan, Thaaal-
ooothuvaan,
Nizhal-pin-selvaan, Neer-mel-nadappaan.
The associate man , whose head was cut , he instantly took a birth
and started growing like a vazhai maram. (again at almighty's
wish to
fulfill the rules of Isho Upanishad !!!)
Kaliyan was spending his last years of life in
thirukurungudi ....... ,
In thiru-kurun-gudi-Vayal-kaadu , he (That Resurgent Man)blocked
the Kaliyan at his old age and said i am going to cut off your head.
Kaliyan have no energy to fight. but to agree.He prayed for
almighty to have a last darshan from Thirukurungudi perumaal,
almighty agreed and after darshan was over , Kaliyan's Head
was cut off by that man. [ This implies that one can see temple
or tower
from Vayal Kaadu. I am assuming this sentence as i have no clue
about these
places !!! ]
This story, i heard from my father. and who in turn through either
Yedu / through
word of mouth told us.
If any of the other bhagavathaas can shed a full-story on this
topic, then it will be Great !!!
But whatever i said ..is... from my consiousness i still have in my
mind ( through my father) and NOT a cooked-up-story !!!
Adiyaen
